The Prince’s Nanny by Carol Grace

Join Sabrina West as she fulfills her dream of visiting the lake country in Italy … as a Nanny! Well, she was kind of forced to (don’t worry, I am not giving away anything here). Her step-mother owns a Nanny Agency, and one of their not-so-pleasant clients is The Prince of Savoy. After six experienced and dedicated nannies (from their point of view, not the Prince’s), The Prince is getting sick and tired already, and the words “One more chance, or else” are already being said. For Sabrina’s step-mother, the only solution is to send her step daughter off to Italy – to be the nanny herself.

Sabrina doesn’t really have a choice in the matter, apparently. So even though she didn’t want to be in that position again, being a nanny that is, there she is, visiting Italy, and will try to be accepted as the nanny of The Prince. Easy enough?

Oh, I failed to mention that The Prince has two ‘misunderstood’ daughters – twins… Oh no. So, I think you know where I am going with this summary. ;) Anyway, no one said (at least, not from my circle of friends) that winning a family over, especially an upper-class European family, is easy. All Nanny Sabrina can do is try.

What I think about The Prince’s Nanny

The author of this book, Carol Grace, really knows how to write an effective romance novel. And yes, including the “action”. Oh, I am just being honest ;) So far, Carol Grace (also known as Carol Culver from her mystery and teen books) has written a total of 35 books including “Mail-Order Millionaire” and “Cinderella in Overalls” – which I intend to read, hopefully, soon. I have a lot of “to be read” books.

I am a sucker for a great romance novel. The story plot also has a bit of a “fairytale” sense to it. While reading it, I felt that this can happen in real life. I mean, it certainly doesn’t happen every day, but surely, it is a possible story. It can happen – or at least, that’s what I’d like to believe. You never know, dreams do come true, as per Disney. And I actually believe that.

You’ll get to appreciate Carol Grace’s characters in this book. Although, I am just surprised with The Prince of Savoy’s fiancé; I certainly didn’t’ expect her to react that way (you’ll know what I mean once you read the book, hah!).

All in all, I really loved this story. From the title, if you will judge it, you’ll say, “Yeah, I know what’ll happen there, I know the ending already”. For me, I am still amazed to see how everything turned out just perfect for the main characters, including the two evil ‘misunderstood’ daughters.
